Hi Trevor, Bogi and gang... Thanks for your replies. Sorry I was a little short on details there. After thinking about this, I figured that this had to do with the server using PHP as a module. My hosting provider has a form for editing crontab and suggested:
GET http://path/to/script > /dev/null which seems to work. I'm not exactly sure what's at work there... I used 'man get' and got some stuff about SCCS er some such. Anyway... This might be helpful information for people (like me) who are more comfortable with php than with perl or bash scripting and want to run a script using php...
